2nd test: West Indies vs England - Antigua

[bigfluffylemon]

Played India away in there, which won't have flattered their numbers.

Holder took a 5-fer in one test...

To quote Blackadder: "that was b0llocks".

Foakes is going to have an x-Ray of his injured hand so Bairstow will retain the gloves this morning.

Campbell dropped! The Buttler did it.

Campbell dropped! The Buttler did it.

Well hes dropped three this series, the last is a clanger...

This time he holds on. Campbell's luck finally runs out. Hes had more lives than a cat, but I guess he wont mind. Hes steered his side into a commanding position.

[mikesiva]

Campbell out for 47. Buttler held on this time.

Good ball from Stokes, Campbell played well, another good opening partnership for the windies

Meanwhile Braitwaite's innings seems to have come out of a time machine from a time passed. 18 off 80-90 balls. This is madness, why isnt he trying to smash the ball into the sea?

[sussexpob]

Broad summing up England's match there. Hope is back in his crease, but he still decides to throw at the stumps with no one backing up.... 4 runs on a plate.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Broad not living up to his own hype yet.

Campbell only scored at a SR of 40. Seems to be working though.

Who would have thought patience was a virtue in a 5 day game? Here is me thinking what this situation really needed was a few short, aggressive slogs

[Durhamfootman]

WI continue to show England how to play test cricket

if only their batting strike rates were better, they could be a good side

[Arthur Crabtree]

Bayliss could turn that around if WI can afford his wages.

[Durhamfootman]

Unfortunately for England, they can't
